Default Rear Tire Issues!

Ok, so, yesterday I was driving, hydroplaned at about 10 miles an hour making a hard left hand turn. I was able to recover the car, however, not before it spun around and the rear tire hit a curb. The tire partially came off the rim, and I had to use the doughnut (man, does that thing look wierd on the back!) until this morning. Took the tire to a local tire shop, where they remounted the rubber to the rim, filled it up, balanced it, and away I was. Except for one or two small scratches, you cant notice anything ever happened. However, once on my way, I noticed that it sounds like a propeller airplane is coming from the right rear tire. It is a very annoying sound, that is worse between the speeds of 45-65 mph. I havent really noticed the car pulling, and other than the sound, it runs great. Anyone have any ideas? I am taking it to the dealership tommrow, however, was just curious if anyone actually knew what was up.
Thanks!
